However, Inter had to do it the hard way.
For much of the first half, the Nerazzurri were held at arm's length by Urawa Red Diamonds.
Particularly after the Japanese side went ahead early on, Inter dominated the ball but struggled to turn it into any particularly dangerous chances.

The 27-year-old had come into the lineup after being a substitute against Monterrey.
However, Dimarco showed little of why he is a key player for Inter.
There were no particularly dangerous crosses or deliveries from set pieces from the Italian international.
Then, defensively Dimarco was partly culpable for the breakdown on Inter's right side that allowed Urawa to score their opening goal.

Bayern Munich add Arsenal's Gabriel Martinelli to transfer target list

Christian Falk reports that Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich have added Arsenal's Gabriel Martinelli to their list of summer transfer targets. Incoming transfer rumors relating to the German giants continue to come thick and fast. FCB chief personnel officer Max Eberl and staff are clearly working overtime at the Säbener Straße headquarters. Arsenal's 18-times-capped Brazilian international fits the profile of what Bayern seek during the current summer transfer window. Namely, a winger with a proven performance record and a price tag in the €50m-€70m range. Martinelli maintains a current €55m estimated market value. Advertisement Bayern require assistance on both flanks ahead of the new Bundesliga campaign, but seem to be prioritizing players with leftward proclivities first. The Martinelli rumors make sense in the context of this need. Thanks to their early qualification for the Round-of-16 in the ongoing club World Cup, Bayern have already earned the equivalent of €39.5 million in the new mega-format tournament. It is such that one expects the German record champions to seal some blockbuster summer signings in the coming days. GGFN | Peter Weis

Kenan Yildiz scores twice in Juventus' 4-1 win in Club World Cup

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Kenan Yildiz scored two goals in Juventus' 4-1 win over Wydad in the Club World Cup on Sunday. The victory clinched a spot in the elimination round of the tournament for Juventus. In the sixth minute, Juventus took the lead as defender Abdelmounaim Boutouil deflected a shot attempt by Yildiz into the back of Wydad's net. Ten minutes later, Yildiz showed up again in front of the 31,975 fans in Lincoln Financial Field, less than half the stadium's capacity, to double Juventus' lead with a powerful volley into the top right corner. Wydad made it 2-1 in the 25th minute after a pass from team captain Nordin Amrabat left Thembinkosi Lorch one-on-one with Michele Di Gregorio, who wasn't able to stop Lorch's chip shot. Following the goal, the referee paused the match after Wydad's supporters threw three flares onto the field and set off red and black smoke in the stands that affected visibility on the field. The four-minute pause also served as a hydration break for the players as temperatures in Philadelphia reached 89 degrees in the first half. With his second goal of the game, Yildiz secured the win for Juventus in the 69th minute after an assist by Randal Kolo Muani. In stoppage time, Dusan Vlahovic added a goal after converting a penalty kick. Key moment Vlahovic's score in the 94th minute was key to make Juventus' goal differential better ahead of a tough match against Manchester City for the lead in Group G. Takeaways Juventus is through to the round of 16 of the Club World Cup. They will play Manchester City next Thursday to determine the leader of Group G.
